I have driven over Tennessee, Los Angeles, up and down the PCH, between Mexico and San Francisco, las Vegas etc, and it has been the best driving experience of my life, yet I cannot even ride my motorbike between my village and the nearest town which is only 15 Ks away without seeing dangerous driving and riding incidents.
Riding on the wrong side of the road, getting cut up by vehicles overtaking me then doing a left hand turn, coming through a stop signs when they should be giving way etc, etc, etc.
